Re: Being eyeballed

Every time they use
that laser, you lose a little vision, permanently.

And the damn black dots wind up obscuring your field of vision
EXACTLY where the point of the soldering iron needs to be placed.

It's perhipheral vision which it mullers - at least, at first. Not a
huge loss to me. My left eye is 'lazy' and so my 3d vision is terrible
anyway, and I kept nearly loosing wing-mirrors when I learnt to
drive. I find myself missing the utility of a car less than the
equivalent loss of cash would be at the moment in anycase. Though I am
yearning to go to Ikea...
